How can you know that people don't play for fun when using level 20 characters? What if some people don't have fun grinding the same 20 levels yet again and prefer to just hop in a game of a higher difficulty?

Play how you want and don't care what others say.

Anyway, this thread is dumb. Just thought you needed to know that.


That is the problem right there... making the same builds over and over again.

And this threat has a point, is easy to grasp it and know why I worded it in that way.

Anyways saying people that promote are retarded because promoting is pointless sure makes more sense.


Letting the players enjoy their own fun is actually the only thing that makes sense when it comes to videogames.
Telling the other players how to play because you think you are right is pointless though.

I see your point, they could raise the level - or make it crazy hard to make it to level 20... OR make a loop, so when you reach level 20 that 1 EXP will drop you back to level 1.... HA HA AH ...*ahem* ya

But ya...  your rant and anger is silly and unfounded - this is a FRICKEN light... silly, play when you want to take it easy, Video game.

There are only a certain number of builds possible per class and then very slight variations therein when choosing between 2 evolutions of the same power. You can also use respec cards to try out new builds too. I know right, magic.

Also, reading comprehension, get some. I didn't say anything against promoting, I said some people might not find that fun.

You waste xp anyway.

By promoting you're intentionally tossing your character to the trash can so you can build it again. Since I already have those levels, I don't want to reset the character for the sole purpose of getting it exactly to the same point it already was.

The only other thing you get by promoting is +10 N7 rank, and I actually prefer not to raise it further, so there.

Give a jumbo pack for promoting and then you'd have something.

Now that I think about it, is OP talking about bronze, cuz yeah, L20 is a bit much for bronze, lol.

I promoted the new Earth characters a few times, just to reset their powers and did a bronze each time just so I didn't feel like a scrub in silver/gold and was amazed at how many L20's I saw in bronze. But you know what? Oh well, it's their game, if they wanna play bronze at L20, they can damn well play bronze.


I sometimes play Bronze with my lvl 20 characters because I'm playing with a friend who's still working on unlocking the better weapons so he can join me in my regular Silver games.  And sometimes I just feel like doing a little "charity work" in Bronze...like the last event challege to extract with at least on N7 Earth character on the team.

Especially if you already beat the game a few times... BIOWARE has been pretty good about hearing the gamers wants, complaints, desires, gripes, needs, yurns, ambitions, change requests, and lusts (*sorry*threw that in there). Maybe change will come about?

No, whats pointless is to continuously leveling up the same character over and over.
There's no point to leveling up if just gonna reset them once u have them leveled up and do it all over again. I don't play this game to level up characters. I play this game so i can kill thing with space guns and space powers.

I regret getting my n7 rank above 1000 by promoting because of the single player war assets. Now when i go to bronze with a concussive shot human soldier with the avenger w/o mods or gear, i look kind of stupid in the lobby

Fair enough, don't do it yourself then, let other people play how they want.

My N7 is only 810 and I stopped promoted after they removed rare character cards.Problem? And I have enough assets for the best ending as it is. Don't see a point in starting from scratch just so I can show off my large N7 numbers.

So I'm not having fun? I hadn't noticed that. Sometimes I promote, sometimes I don't. Besides, I'm not good enough to even try gold with anything below lv 20.

I don't, and i do. I didn't i start a thread telling people how its pointless playing with level 20 characters. Even though thats the point of leveling up, to get character at max potential to play with.

So I'm tired of all the threads going off in rants about how n7 is worthless and is no indicator of skill and how people that kick low n7 players are retarded.

So I've a better question; what is the point of playing with level 20 characters?

You waste exp, your overpowered character makes everything too easy and stale so it can't be for fun, the only logical answer would be to grind for credits, and if that is the sole reason you play, you may as well grind fbwgg all day... so the only reason you don't promote and watch how you get closer to 20k warassets  (and closer to your secret ending) is to grind for credits in a behavior that many games have used  to trap and sometimes kill people with questionable mental health... 

Well good job in unlocking all the game has to offer (or breaking lots of crap in fits of rage because you are almost over 9000 level 4 consumables), how does it feel to know you are playing this game, for no reason other than a false sense of accomplishment? because you surely ain't doing it for fun.

--------------

To me nothing beats changing playstyles as you level up; is great to play the asari vanguard sniper at level 1 and then switch to asari cqc with a claymore at level 10.

Adjusting your playstyle as you level up, and trying new builds from scratch is as much fun or funner than playing on the casino roulette and somehow win 5 times in a row, because odds say you won't have any fun, when you get a level 4 cryo ammo instead of the demolisher you wanted.



Ok, this isn't the first time I've read this ludicrous comment. How is it wasting exp? If my character is level 20, I don't NEED exp. That's like saying I'm wasting a flu shot if I turn one down because I've already had one. Constantly promoting may be fun for you and might make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside as you watch your n7 rank rise, but I have my characters how I like them. Furthermore, if I want to try a new build, I can simply use a respec card since I know it will be replaced very soon. I got my n7 up to 420 and quit promoting a long time ago. I could easily be over 2000, but my ego isn't rapped up in that number. Besides, I've played random matches with players with n7 ranks over 1000 that were absolutely worthless in the match. All of that promoting and leveling doesn't seem to have made them any better with their characters. Either someone knows how to play their character or they don't. promoting has nothing to do with this. I pay more attention to their weapon, mod, gear, and consumable loadouts than I do their n7 rank.

I really liked having the 5 extra class slots... it even got to the point where I wanted more than 10. This is on Black Ops.

No way I would have maxed my rares while playing 3 hours a week tops if I didn't.

I am missing my reactor gold run for the crappy achievement, but all PUGs give up on me everytime we land there.

Anyways you CAN play a low level character in gold and be top score, it just requires a lot of DPS and meatshield level 20 players.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion of fun. What's fun for some is boring for others. let people play the way they enjoy and if you don't agree with other peoples' play styles, just leave. If only there was a magical device that allowed to create your own private game, Oh wait there is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
